Museum Wiesbaden in Germany will be opening a rather interesting sounding exhibition in a few days' time entitled Honey Yellow — The Bee in Art From the Renaissance to the Present.
According to their website:
The bee is the popular figure of the 21st century. The major spring exhibition provides a comprehensive insight into the exciting history of the bee in art, from the Renaissance to the present day.
For the first time, this story is being told in an exhibition using top-class works of art. Never before has it been possible to experience the wide variety of roles played by the bee as vividly as in our exhibition. Surprising stories, instructive tales, philosophical ideas and astonishing allegories can be marveled at around this insect. Many of the stories are still touching today, because the bee has always been the inspiration for the visualization of general human feelings and ideals.
The show will run from 7th March until 22nd June 2025.
